Exploring the neurobehavioural impacts of combined early life and adult stress on decision making under uncertainty
… including the hippocampus (HPC), PFC, and amygdala (AMY). Overall, these findings suggest that early MS stress alone is insufficient to produce overt neurobehavioural outcomes in adulthood and may confer some resilience. However, early MS stress appears to influence the interaction with …

Role of the IKKβ/NF-κB pathway in alcoholism
… cortex (PFC), nucleus accumbens (NAc), amygdala (AMY), and ventral tegmental area (VTA)]. Subsequently, the effects of inhibiting/knocking down IKKβ were investigated both systemically and centrally to determine the effects on voluntary ethanol drinking. It was observed that both …

Roles of dopamine D1 and D2, opioid and glutamate NMDA receptor signaling in the acquisition and expression of fat- and glucose-conditioned flavor preferences in rats and c-Fos analysis of the dopamine mesotelencephalic and nigrostriatal pathways following intake of sugars and fats in rats
… CFP, such as the nucleus accumbens (NAc), the amygdala (AMY), the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC), or the dorsal striatum (caudate and putamen: CPu). The present study examined the origin of DA (ventral tegmental area: VTA) and the five projection zones (NAc shell, NAc core, AMY, mPFc and CPu) …

Anorexia nervosa: investigation of markers of neuroinflammation, oxidative stress and synaptic plasticity using the activity-based anorexia rat model.
… nucleus (PVN), arcuate nucleus (ARC), amygdala (Amy) and substantia nigra (SN)]. In accordance with our previous results, we observed a general reduction of microglia in most of the regions under investigation in the ABA rats, while astrocytic density was not markedly altered. Lastly, …

The impact of emotional distraction on cognition: from basic brain responses to large-scale network interactions
The goal of the current dissertation was to clarify the behavioral and neural mechanisms associated with the impact and control of emotional distraction by investigating the influences of the nature (positive vs. negative) and source (external vs. internal) of emotional distraction, the types of …
